Meet Evelyn!  She is the daughter of a good friend of mine and I was so happy to be a part of their pregnancy journey.  (You may remember their fun maternity session full of pillow fights and bely painting. ) I was very excited to meet this new bundle of joy, and she is just so sweet.  She slept most of the time, with very little fussing, she made my job very easy.   Congratulations to the whole family!

So I have had an absolute blast getting to know Shayla!  I know I’ve said it before, but she is just the sweetest person, i love her bubbly personality and the constant smile on her face.  Shayla wanted to do something outside the traditional pre-wedding bridal shot, so we decided an after wedding trash the dress session was in order.  It was so much fun hiking in a dress, getting attacked by angry GIGANTIC ants, finding a haunted tree graveyard, and crawling up on top of rocks for this fabulous shoot!  What goes on behind the scenes really should have been filmed, it was so much fun!

Gail Stephenson - Stunning! I especially like the black and white one. Shayla, if you get tired of the law, maybe you should consider modeling!

Mathis - Shayla is a beautiful bride. There is a very luck husband somewhere in the world. Justine, you do breath taking work. You definitely have an eye for art with a great personality to match! Beethoven and Mozart would be in awe!

Shayla - Justine, I had a blast working with you! The pics of me looking serious are hilarious because I always started laughing at myself when I tried to look serious. So, if you see a smirk behind the "serious look," you know I was on the verge of laughter. Thanks for a wonderful experience, Justine. I have ant bites as souvenirs! LOL!

Tracey and Brad have been such a fun couple to work with!  From the confetti filled contract envelope, the Napa engagement session to the fabulous wedding, there have been so many surprises and wonderful memories along the way.  I have enjoyed getting to know the both of you and learning more about you and your families.  You are both gentle and loving, and so kind to those around you.  I wish you all the best and hope to be able to keep in contact with you in the future!

I have had one busy weekend, let me tell you!  I am exhausted!  It all started last Friday when Alex and Chad were married at the always gorgeous Val Vista Lakes in Gilbert.  The weather was gorgeous, the bride was blushing and the groom was handsome.  It was a picture perfect day!  Sorry that I am a little behind on posting these, but between two trips to Tucson and a root canal.. i am just a bit winded.  Please forgive me.  enjoy the previews!  There are more on facebook as well if you want to find and friend me

I can’t believe how time flies by.  It seems as if just yesterday we were welcoming my neice Alexis into the world, and now she is almost two years old!  She was not much into the photo taking, so we distracted her with a tea party and some bubbles.  Happy early birthday sweet Alexis from your Auntie who loves you very much!

Kimberly - LOVE them, thanks Justine!
